<\/a>Fall color<\/p><\/div>Yesterday was a beautiful, cloudless, warm day in Asheville NC. I took a few hours to drive a section of the Blue Ridge Parkway and take a few photos. There was some fall color, though very muted by Vermont standards. But it was a nice day for a drive and an opportunity to regain some confidence in the truck.

A nice drive – and the truck performed well – with some beautiful vistas. The big surprises, for me, were the number of tunnels (about 10), the presence of a hotel at the top of the mountain and, directly across the road from the hotel, a campground with RV sites. A motorhome was checking in. I have to admire the courage (foolishness?) of someone who would drive an RV up those steep, winding roads.<\/p>\n Valley vista<\/p><\/div> A tiny bit of color<\/p><\/div><\/p>\n Pigsah Inn<\/p><\/div>\n View from the Pigsah Inn<\/p><\/div>\n Rock cut<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Yesterday was a beautiful, cloudless, warm day in Asheville NC.
